In this paper we study Lorentzian spacetimes for which all polynomial scalar invariants constructed from the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives are constant (CSI spacetimes) in three dimensions. We determine all such CSI metrics explicitly, and show that for every CSI with particular constant invariants there is a locally homogeneous spacetime with precisely the same constant invarian...

We conducted a randomized, crossover study in healthy adults to examine the effects of a nutritional supplement (Boost Plus) on posaconazole pharmacokinetics. In this study, coadministration of posaconazole with Boost Plus increased the maximum concentration of posaconazole in serum and area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 72 h values 3.4- and 2.6-fold, respectively, compared to th...

This paper deals with the design and analysis of standalone solar PV based boost converter with P& O (Perturb and Observe) MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) Techniques. An intermediate converter can therefore increase efficiency by matching the PV system to the load and by operating the solar cell arrays at their maximum power point. MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller is used for ...

This paper presents, a high speed FPGA implementation of fully digital controller for threephase Z-Source Inverter (ZSI) with two switching strategies include simple boost control and maximum boost control. In this method total of blocks are based on proposed digital circu its only with combinational logic and using pipelining technique. Since it is vital to have a high speed and effective ZSI ...

This paper presents a single-phase five-level photovoltaic (PV) inverter topology for grid-connected PV systems with a Sinusoidal Pulse Width-Modulated (SPWM) control scheme. The photo-voltaic arrays are connected to fivelevel multilevel inverter through the DC-DC boost converter. By implementing maximum power point tracking algorithm are producing more power from PV array. The DC power from th...

INTRODUCTION To evaluate in-field megavoltage (MV) imaging of simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) breast fields to determine its feasibility in treatment verification for the SIB breast radiotherapy technique, and to assess whether the current-imaging protocol and treatment margins are sufficient. METHODS For nine patients undergoing SIB breast radiotherapy, in-field MV images of the SIB fi...

The inherent nature of normal boost converter has more voltage stress across the power electronics switch and ripple. The presented formation of the front end rectifier stage for a photovoltaic (PV) organization is mainly used to give the supply. Further increasing of the solar efficiency is achieved by connecting the zero voltage soft switching boost converter. The zero voltage boost converter...
